conduct a breakeven analysis for the following project :
A | |
Invesment (OR) | 888340.95 |
to be sold unit /year | 32000 |
variable cost OR/unit | 1.596 |
selling price OR/unit | 25 |
Annual expenses/year | 499517 |
MV (OR) | 200000 |
useful life | 10 |
Contribution Per Unit = Selling Price - Variable Cost per unit
= 25-1.596 = 23.404
Annual Fixed Expenses = Annual Expenses + Depreciation
= 499517 + (200,000/10)
=499,517+20,000 = 519,517
Brek Even Number of Units to sold is when the contribution from sales = Total Annual Fixed Expenses
23.404*Number of Units = 519,517
Number of Units = 519,517/23.404 = 22,198 units
If we sell 22,198 units the profit for the year will be 0, hence breakeven.
